the platters - house of the rising sun lyrics

Loading...

[chorus]
there is a house in new orleans
they call the rising sun

[verse 1]
there is a house in new orleans
they call the rising sun
and it’s been the ruin of many a poor girl
oh god, i know i’m one

[verse 2]
if i had listened to what my mama say
why i’d be there home today
but i was young and foolish and poor
led a gambling man lead me on astray
[chorus]
there is a house in new orleans
they call the rising sun

[verse 3]
my mother she’s a tailor
and she sews those new blue jeans
my sweetheart is a drunken, oh lord
hе drinks down in new orleans

[verse 4]
go and tell my baby’s sistеr
don’t you do, don’t you do what your sister has done
stay away from that house in new orleans
they call the rising run

[chorus]
there is a house in new orleans
they call the rising sun

[verse 5]
well, i’ve got one foot on the platform
got the other foot on a train
i’m going back to new orleans
gonna wear that ball and chain
[verse 6]
i’m going back to new orleans
my race is almost run
i’m going back to spend my life
beneath the rising sun

[outro]
there is a house in new orleans (goin’ back)
they call the rising sun
(goin’ back)
there is a house in new orleans
they call the rising sun
(yeah i’m going back down way down there)
(i’m gonna wear that ball and chain)
